Custom Ender 3 Fan mount and endoscope

prusaprinters

<p>I made this Fusion360 CAD<br/> This is technically a remix but completely redone cad work from these two things<br/> <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4311938">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4311938</a><br/> <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3179892">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3179892</a></p> <p>I wanted them to get the ender printing again (it was a clone of an ender probably and it had issues) i bought a cheap resin printer (looked nice but it also has alot of design issues. . like overheating and cooking screens in one print)</p> <p>anyhow this is what i am using now. printed in clear abslike blue ( to match render. but it came out cloudy</p> <p>it fits a bltouch.. AND it fits an endoscope camera (5.51mm) also known as borescope which was 30$ off amazon and it helped me make this design work perfectly and diagnose all the first layer issues up close and personal like. (attached to teh fan cover)</p> <p>thanks to this my ender prints like a champ for about 5 prints.. but due to the resin's brittle nature if i have a print head collision due to a nasty failed print getting nocked over it tends to break the parts .. but i always keep a couple spares printed jsut in case</p> <p>perhaps one day illfinda local supplier of siriya tech tenatious or soemthing and make a tougher version.</p> <p>This could potentially be printed in ABS or PETG . it does get close to the hotend but should not be close enough to be a big issue. like other hotend shrouds.</p> <p>i myself like the clear ish look of resin . and the renders</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>pieces printed at an angle in the resin to minimise supports on the inside as they are not easy to pick out of the duct.. (on it side tilted.. )</p>
